I personally feel this is a disgrace. The Conservatives wants US to pay further for Social Care.

When this should come from Central Government. Its been called The Poor Tax, and we HAVE to pay

This Government should look after the elderly, as without them. Most of us wouldn't be here today.

I was speaking to a great friend of mine yesterday, whose husband suffers from Dementia / Elzhiemers, She has to pay for private care out of her savings to look after him.

This is not right. The elderly have pai into the system, created the Country to what it is today. So therefore should be looked after until there dying day.

Isnt t strange that they can find money, when they want. But want US to pay an increase in Council Tax, to look after OURSELF when we get old.
